About this title

Synopsis

This memoir presents the reader with a unique glimpse into the lives of British expatriates living in Natal, South Africa, shortly after the turn of the 20th century. Through the eyes of two well-educated, adventurous British women, the book explores the day-to-day lives of these early settlers against a backdrop of political and social upheaval. The authors' observations of the socio-political landscape of Natal are fascinating and insightful, revealing much about the tensions and challenges of daily life for the inhabitants at the time. These detailed ethnographic accounts, from this particular point in time, provide a valuable historical document for scholars and historians. The book also makes for a compelling read for today's travelers and readers interested in the lives of early colonists and travelers who bravely ventured into the unknown during this period of human history.
